Lichen flora of Surinsar-Mansar wildlife sanctuary, J&K
Journal Title: Journal of Applied and Natural Science - Year 2009, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
The present study conducted to enumerate the lichens from the so far unexplored Surinsar-Mansar wildlife sanctuary, J&K, revealed the presence of 30 species belonging to 18 genera from 14 families. The species belonged to different growth forms (21 crustose, 8 foliose and 1 fruticose) and are also growing on various substrata (corticolous-17 and saxicolous-13). Mangifera indica hosted the maximum number (12) while Pinus roxburghii did not host any lichen species in this area.
